I’m not a frequent fast food eater, but I found myself at a Wendy’s last month and I tried the 4 for $4. I had milk rather than the soft drink and would have called it a winner all around—except that the chicken nuggets were McDonald’s style reconstituted chicken crap. I’d have thought Wendy’s at least, would have actual chicken.

I buy it weekly for my kids and Rottweiler

I’m old enough to remember early 60s McDonalds

The basics aren’t much different except a bit pricier

Old McDonalds was thin burger on bun with ketchup onions pickle mustard like now

Fish sandwich

Big Mac

Fries cooked in lard....better

Shakes

Not much else
N
Kids meals and quarter pounders and nuggets and egg mcmuffin rolled out early 70s

I don’t recall 50s McDonalds when it may have been meatier and fresher like a real joint

I can eat the Big Mac and the morning Stuff but there are better fast food options out there

I like Whataburger better and of course I&O when I can get it

It’s difficult to find a better deal that a McDouble and a large Diet Coke... $2.06, including sales tax.

It’s filling... it’s 450 calories... not that healthy, but... CHEAP!

Logically, it would be only 50% as popular.

well it’s been more that 10 years since I ate any of their food. Always gave me the “back door trots”. We just do not eat any big chain fast food anything. Give me that old greasy spoon cafe any time.

“I don’t recall 50s McDonalds when it may have been meatier and fresher like a real joint”

I can remember them and it wasn’t any different than the 60s. 15 cents and a over a million sold.

If I want a quick burger and that McDonald’s taste

<><><><

Has that actually ever happened to you? That you actually desire the taste?

The quickness I understand. The taste, not at all.
